Proprietary Non-gmo Plant-based Protein Blend

This blend is a mix of proteins derived from plants, such as peas, rice, or soy. It is designed to provide a complete protein source, meaning it contains all nine essential amino acids. The specific plant sources and processing methods are often proprietary, meaning the manufacturer keeps them as a trade secret.

Manufacturers add plant-based protein blends to foods to boost protein content. They are commonly found in energy drinks, protein bars, meal replacements, and snacks. These blends help make products more filling and appealing to consumers seeking plant-based protein options.

Plant-based protein blends are generally recognized as safe by the FDA when used as intended. They are a source of essential amino acids, which are important for muscle building and repair. While generally considered healthy, the overall nutritional value depends on the specific blend and the food it's added to. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many individual plant proteins.
